Fantasy Impact

Recently signed guards D.J. Augustin AND Wenyen Gabriel (two-way contract) will not debut for the Lakers on Tuesday. The move has no fantasy impact.

According to Shams Charania on Twitter, D.J. Augustin is signing with the Lakers.

Fantasy Impact

After the Lakers waived veteran center DeAndre Jordan on Monday, they have added D.J. Augustin to their roster. The veteran guard has played in 34 games this season with the Rockets averaging 5.4 points, 1.2 rebounds, and 2.2 assists.

Per Jackson Gatlin, the Rockets are waiving guard D.J. Augustin as a result of acquiring Dennis Schroder from the Celtics.

Fantasy Impact

In 34 games this season with the Rockets, Augustin averaged 5.4 points,1.2 rebounds, and 2.2 assists. The Rockets are clearly excited in the addition of Schroder since they also waived Armoni Brooks. Look for Schroder to see plenty of minutes in the Rockets back-court.

D. J. Augustin totaled three points, and two assists in Saturday’s 113-106 loss to the Memphis Grizzlies.

Fantasy Impact

Augustin started at point guard for Eric Gordon (rest) on Saturday and ran the Rockets’ offense. The 13- year veteran logged in 26 minutes but took only four shots against the Grizzlies. Expect Augustin to move back to his normal role in Monday’s contest against the Atlanta Hawks.

D.J. Augustin scored 18 points (5-11 FG, 4-10 3PT, 4-4 FT) with four rebounds, five assists, a steal, and two turnovers across 22 minutes during Sunday's 124-95 blowout loss to the Atlanta Hawks.

Fantasy Impact

The veteran point guard drained four triples while handing out five assists in a blowout loss to end the Rockets' abysmal season. With rumors swirling about John Wall leaving Houston this offseason, Augustin could be brought back again for the 2021-22 season.
